Abstract :
We present two memory reduction methods for the parallel multilevel fast multipole algorithm. One of these methods uses data structures out of core, and the other parallelizes the data structures related to input geometry. With these methods, large-scale electromagnetic scattering problems can be solved on modest parallel computers.
